Troubleshooting
Suede appears matted or dirty
Use a suede brush to gently brush the surface and restore the nap. For stubborn dirt, a suede cleaner can be applied following product instructions.
Shoes feel slightly stiff initially
Wear the shoes for short periods indoors to allow them to conform to your foot shape. The cushioning and suede will soften with wear.
Discoloration from water exposure
Allow the shoes to dry naturally away from direct heat. Once dry, use a suede brush to try and lift the color. Suede protector sprays are recommended to prevent future water marks.
